<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Hi All</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">As we are getting close to the Eel Weir Road closing, yesterday was<br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">a good day to visit a favorite meadow in Keji.<br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">The Meadow is on the bottom of what looks to be an old lake.<br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">The ground is smooth with a growth of shrubs, Leatherleaf and its <br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">relatives. About up to my waste so not easy walking. It could be called<br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">a flood plain by now. It is well protected by its army made up of<br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Black Flies, Mosquitos, Deer Flies, Ticks and their relatives. They took<br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">in a lot of recruits recently and were able to provide me with an escort<br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">the whole afternoon! A delightful Stillwater winds through the meadow<br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">with its peaty dark water.<br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">At one place there was a few butterflies. A deep yellow sort of like a Cadium yellow<br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">deep shade. They were mid sized as butterflies go. Perhaps 75% the size of a Cabbage White.<br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">but bigger than a Skipper. Any ideas as to ID would be appreciated. They might<br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">be very specific to that habitat as I don't remember seeing them in other places.<br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">I was glad to see the Trout clan are thriving. Beautiful dark colors from the water. <br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">I C&Red a few but didn't upset them unduly!<br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Dragon flies - the jobbies with the chalky white tails were flying about not wanting<br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">to stop for a photo. They seemed to be arguing over the real estate. A few<br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">blue and black damsel flies ignored them.<br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">A great day!<br/></span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Get out and enjoy the summer<br/></span>
</div>
